Review Window-Mounted Air Conditioner

The summers over the past few years have introduced increasingly warmer temperatures, which can cause even us in the Pacific Northwest to look for cooling solutions. Never before heard ads on the radio for portable and permanent air conditioning units are becoming common. If you are looking for relief from the heat wave that is expected again this year, be sure to take a few moments to educate yourself as to your many options. Be mindful that using air conditioners can make the cost of your utility bills and the use of energy escalate at an alarming rate. It would be wise to balance the cost of the purchase of an air conditioning unit with how energy-efficient it will be. If you live in an area with high humidity, such as Seattle, it may be beneficial to also check into a dehumidifying heat pipe which will help reduce the moisture inside your home.

If you live in one of the warmer southern states you will most likely have some form of central air conditioning, which generally cools the entire house, but these central systems are the least energy efficient. Portable air conditioners, which are usually perched in windows, or wall units, which are installed in areas that you want to stay cool, may be an acceptable and more energy-friendly option. A portable air conditioner, which you can move to any room in your home whenever you need the cool air, is the most affordable option.
